Now crossing the OPF1 threshold. I get the updates from the RadioReference KSC scanner feed.

Although no good now, I suspect NASA TV will air it in their video file later at 3pm EDT.

Atlantis has once again stopped. Engineers and other people are gathering around to take a look. Crowd holding a banner (presumptively about Atlantis) and taking a picture.

It's the standard "We're behind you" banner.

Atlantis is once again on the move, she looks great in this weather.
It's very sad to see this for the last time.
Large crowd on the sidelines watching the orbiter.

Atlantis is out of sight.
EDIT - switched over to another camera. There she is again. Once again motion has stopped.

She's not expected to be spotted in the transfer ailse until 2pm local, so a day out in the sun for Atlantis.

Any idea what time frame a launch might be on 7/12?
Roughly 9:45 am EDT according to Chris G. But that will change slightly based on the ISS reboost coming up. Just plan for mid-morning.
Any update on when they may announce a new firmer NET date now that Endeavour is on her way?
As stated in yesterday's post-launch news conference, Mike Moses thinks they'll have a NET launch date by Friday, May 20 or Monday, May 23. But that's just preliminary.

Based on the location of the VAB and the diagonal slant of the back edge of the Livestream feed there would not be very good chance to see much from the KSC VC tour buses. Looks to be quite far from the road with very narrow window for viewing from a bus.
Granted that didn't stop KSC VC from teasing in a tweet that you could "catch a glimpse" of Atlantis from the tours. For my money the best is still the Livestream feed.
http://www.livestream.com/newchannel/popoutplayer?channel=spaceflightnowI was torn about whether to try and head over but I think I've decided to try and catch the SRBs coming back in from launch. From what I have seen in other pictures posted you can get a little closer to those in the Canaveral locks.
